rbridges Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 check me out. M20C w/180HP. Flew from madagascar to perry, ga in 53 minutes. That's over 9,000 miles. The best part is it only took a little over 11 gallons of fuel. http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N6099Q
HopePilot Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 That is impressive. I had heard that some of the people behind the SR-71 worked on Mooneys, but I didn't know they installed a secret button I've failed to discover.
1964-M20E Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 That is a special STC #R71 cost is about $80M essentially you take you’re your Mooney emblem off the dash and install it and your tail number on an SR71. It was available a few years ago when the USAF retired the SR71s. Unfortunately I did not own a Mooney then.
FloridaMan Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 Where you out there signing your name on those others?

The best part is it only took a little over 11 gallons of fuel. http://flightaware.c...e/flight/N6099Q I looked at your flight in more detail to see what happened and it looks like since the FAA didn't enter an origin on your flight plan, our backend looked at your route which started at the MOQ VOR and there was a collision between the VOR with the identifier MOQ and FMMV airport in Madagascar which has an IATA code of MOQ. We've been making improvements to our code that interprets the feed from the FAA, but more are coming soon. If you run into any other issues with FlightAware, please let me know. Thanks, -Andrew (from FlightAware)
carusoam Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Andrew, Great support! Thanks for bringing the other side of the situation. Best regards, -a-

wishboneash Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 Mine must be the 2nd most efficient Mooney then! http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N201LW/history/20120714/0045Z/MUVT/KLVK
